Top Trends of Software Development in the Digital Workspace

The coronavirus-induced pandemic has greatly impacted the software development space. In addition, the sudden switch to remote working witnessed a rise in cutting-edge app development technologies.

Enterprises accelerated their technology roadmaps to get the hang of sudden shifts and operate in a digital environment. So, every tech professional understands how important it is to follow the latest digital transformation trends to stay afloat.

2022 saw an unprecedented rise for the Software Development industry with several tangible breakthroughs. And the continuation can be seen in 2023 as well.

Below, you can find the top software development trends that will dominate the year ahead.

1. Cloud Computing

According to IT Portal, ‘The global pandemic leveraged the interest of using clouds to process and store data.’ As a result, the cloud has been embraced by both startups and businesses, and the most important processes today are being run in clouds.

The key reason the top Cloud computing trends have become one of the most prominent software development trends is that it makes computing easier, offers greater productivity in the development process, lowers costs of new projects, and decreases expenditures on project maintenance.

At this point, almost all global firms (Google, Amazon, and Microsoft) have invested in this technology and are enabling mobile cloud computing for businesses.

2. Low code/no-code development

Low-code/no-code (LCNC) programming has become a must for businesses as it offers the ability to keep going with new initiatives. This type of programming is perfect for those with no development background. They can build databases and low-scale applications to support agile and DevOps approaches.

CNC is fast, and intuitive cuts down development costs and is a great option to build powerful applications without manual coding. So you see, non-tech companies can benefit heavily from low-code or no-code app solutions. In addition, the software can be used for both mobile and web application development projects.

Low code/no-code development

No-code/low-code apps and tools will only continue to rise in popularity. The history of computing is building higher-level abstractions away from the zeroes and ones—from yesterday’s assembly languages and compiled software to today’s modern low-code/no-code solutions. Through these solutions, businesses can move forward in their digital transformation without a technical resource at every step.

3. Progressive Web Apps (PWAs)

Google defines PWAs as ‘A Progressive Web.

App uses modern web capabilities to deliver an app-like user experience.’
A progressive web app does what it says. It is a web page/website that has a look.
It allows access to key native features such as Push notifications, offline support, and installing the app on the home screen.
Reliable, responsive, discoverable, secure, linkable, and engaging is the terminology that runs.
Through the veins of Progressive Web Apps future. Progressive web apps are widely used in the web industry. Uber, Twitter, Lyft, Tinder, Pinterest, Gmail, and MakeMyTrip are several.

PWA is quite popular. Some of its benefits include:

They are comparatively inexpensive to build.
There is no need to go through the process to get into different app stores. Instead, PWA lets users install the app directly from the web. Progressive web apps frameworks support popular browsers like Chrome, Firefox, etc.
Apps built are fast, smooth, and lightweight.
Apps are responsive and work easily on a different device
The amalgamation of advanced low-code platforms and PWA usage paves the way for top-notch cross-platform applications.

4. Edge Computing

Cloud computing is not the only computing innovation that will thrive in 2022. Another popular software development technology trend in 2022 and type of computing is Edge computing which moves the data to the edge of the local network, allowing users to use the software online and offline.

Moreover, according to the statistics, ‘Edge computing is predicted to rise 28 times from 2018 to 2025.’

Blockchain, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, and Augmented Reality-Virtual Reality are among the top development trends that will continue to power businesses.
